Skype is getting yet another revamp as part of Microsoft’s efforts to modernize the app. Chief among them is the updated call stage feature, which is getting Zoom-like layouts for arranging participants in small/large grid, speaker view, alongside the recently added Together mode. The interface will also let users disable video stream and hide audio-only participants from the call stage for reduced clutter.
Users will also be able to add a mobile device to their call as a second camera with the ‘TwinCam feature’ and make use of Skype’s Universal Translator for real-time language translation during landline and video calls.
